I'm looking to do a project or two to level up my dev skills. What projects have you done in the past that were particularly successful?

Anything involving other people. Development for yourself is easy. Pleasing other people is difficult.

Practice making things for other people and developing with other people.

Agreed. Working with others not only help you in a team setting but also help you learn things that you never even knew existed.

Do you have any good examples of how this has worked well for you in the past (ideally, off the job)?
